At Lentra, he will focus on human capital management while creating a high-performance culture.

“Today, it has become extremely crucial for businesses to foster a healthy and supportive relationship with their employees. As Lentra continues to create new generation technology solutions, my aim will be to guide the company’s cultural evolution and attract and retain high-performing talent. I consider this move an opportunity to join hands with the leadership team of Lentra to support the brand in creating a niche for itself in the arena of digital lending,” said Naik.
